How to Spruce Up Meals with Mayonnaise

Mayo is made for more than sandwiches—at least ours is! Made with real ingredients like avocado oil and Certified Humane cage-free eggs, and without cane sugar or corn syrup, our delicious Original Mayo has the classic taste adults and kids crave. This creamy, versatile condiment can enhance the taste of raw vegetables, add creaminess to wraps and rolls, keep your meats juicy, and so much more. Spread it, use it as a dip, or mix it into mayo-based sides like potato salad and coleslaw. 

To help you expand your recipe rotation and your mayo knowledge, we’ve compiled a helpful list of six unique ways to enhance your meals with our mouthwatering mayo:

The addition of mayo helps to moisten baked goods, keeping them from getting too dry during the baking process. Oil is a required component of many baking recipes, and avocado oil is an integral ingredient in making our Vegan Mayo, so the swaps in these easy recipes are a natural fit.

Spread the Word: Mayo is Magic

One of the most popular condiments nationwide, mayonnaise is an all-around powerhouse. Creamy and thick, with a savory taste that’s difficult to describe but easy to enjoy, it can add flavor and texture to a variety of meals. Mayo doesn’t just come in classic, either. Flavored mayo spreads like our Chipotle Lime Mayo and Buffalo Mayo can elevate standard staples like tacos, wraps, and burritos into crave-worthy dishes with an unexpected zing.
